What is a reliable gun that can decimate any charging arc blade, roaming stormtrance, or even a panic Nova? A rocket launcher. And the 4thHorsemen. That's right, that gun you infused out of rage of not getting a invective or trespasser is actually good. Over the time I have used the gun, I have learned how to use it. You don't. That's right, you use only your primary until you are forced into a position that you need to shotgun. Aka a roaming super or multiple guardians chasing you. This gun melts supers faster than they can kill you, leading to salty bladedancers wanting shotgun nerfs and ticked titans (let's call them tic tacs cause that sounds funny) sending hate mail because you seemingly one shot them while using hammers. This gun is surprisingly consistent and does actually shoot something other than blue peas. Spend a game or 10 and you will get used to it. Pair it up with a clever dragon and free kills for you. Please, go show this gun some love, for he desperately needs it.

4th horseman was my only shotgun that I used for the chaperone quests I killed so many sunbreakers (of course pre nerf)

It also chews through your ammo insanely fast while taking up your exotic slot. Invective is FAR superior thanks to the ammo regen and better range. Or better yet, a Matador + melee attack.

Sometimes shotgun + melee works too. Or grenade, shotgun, melee.

Another viable option is the chaperone, another unused shotgun that is amazing. 4thHorsemen better.
